SATURDAY SIGHT'S JUBILEE,

The Bob Are on the Levee Other
Framresor the Celebration.
Had the pre paraiiom been of a much
more pretentious order, occupying many
days of systematic and exhaustive work
and involving a much greater outlay of
money. Kock Island's celebration Satur
day night in h3nor of the Hennepin ca
nalsflnal victory, could not have been
more elaborae, .more enthusiastic, or
more expressive. It was the noisiest.
liveliest, most demonstrative affair of the
kind ever held in this vicinity, and vet
but a few hours were consumed in the
preliminaries. It was impromptu; an in
voluntary outpouring of joy, the un-
coming or pentMip enthusiasm and
anticipation which had unwaveringly
stood the test of years or varying suc
cesses, disappointments and reverses.
Had the retails been less 1m
formal, bad rrore time been taken in the
arrangements and plans, the ratification
could not have been more of a success.
It was all that, it was desired to be; it was
all that it was desired to have it a rip
ping hilarious demonstration of the peo
pie. It was t ot an affair merely for ef
fect though tliere were those who were so
unscrupulous as to attempt to make politis
cal capital out of it. The mass of the
people had no thoughts of politics on
this occasion and should not have. It
was not a partisan event in either sense.
Democrats as well as republicans partic
ipaUd in the plans, both in labor and
means and tjok part in the demonstra
tion in person,, and the very few who at
tempted to take advantage of the public
enthusiasm to make a little political boom-
let simply won the contempt they mers
ited.
It was as tarly as 6 o'clock that the
celebration commenced. The melodious
whistle at tbe Rock Island plow works
poured forth a volume of sound for half
an hour at a Htrtech, which was soon tak
en up by the whistle on the ferry Spen
cer and the locomotive whistles in the C,
R. I. & P., It. I. & P. and C, B. & Q
yards. Tbers was a chorus of escaping
steam for ful y an hour, and by the time
darkness cane nearly all the business
houses on Hecond avenue and cross
streets were decorated and illuminated, the
Harper and F-ock Island bouses, the Darts'
and Don's stores and the A Rous office
containing sr me of the most extensive and
brilliant illuminations. Long before tbe
hour for tbe f rocession to form, pandimo
niumhad taken possession of the streets.
Tbe sidewalks were thronged, and in tbe
streets, big sad little squads were march
ing everywhere, with every conceivable
nstrument of Bound, horns, tin pans.
etc. At 8 o'clock, just before the pro
cession started, the waterworks whistle
gave the sigcal for all whistles to start,
and tbe others quickly joined the saw
mills, the ferry Spencer, and F. C. A.
Denkmann, tbe locomotive whistles on
the C . R. I. & P.. C. B. & Q. and R. I.
& P. road:i all chiming ia the merry
sound.
It was a g and triumph to say tbe least
n securing order out of confusion, that
was accomplised by Capt. J. M. Beards-
ley, chief marshal and Maj. L. M. Buford,
adjutant,in getting the procession togeth
er on time at 8 o'clock, when the order
was taken up practically as previously
announced in tbe Saturday evening Ar
gus, as follows:
Chief Marshall BeardsUy and Adjutant Buford.

Tbe line of march was along Twentieth
street to Tb ird avenue thence west to
Twelfth street, south to Fourth, west to
Tenth, north to Second and east to Eigh
teenth. Hi re the procession turned north
to the levee, and in this a mistake was
unintentionally made owing purely to
oversight, t s it should have gone on to
Nineteenth street, the next block being
the most gorgeously illuminated a'.ong
the line of march. Arriving at tbe river
front a fine bonfire was kindled a huge
mass of boxes, barrels, tar, etc. which
sent up an immense blaze over which
leaped sky-ockets and various ornamen
tal pieces risking a display that lighted
up the river with gorgeous effect and
brought thD good people of the other side
of the stream to a realization that Rock
Island was celebrating something.
Afterward Capt. Robinson was sere
naded at bis home.

AT HILAR.
Milan spent the force of its enthusiasm
in a manner Saturday night that made the
county ring for miles about and farmers
flocked into the city to learn the cause of
the racket, many of them forgetting that
they own sd vehicle and footing it to tbe
town. There was a great blowing of
whistles, ringing of bells. Btreeta were
illuminatid, there was a fine pyrotechnic
display aid a spirit of rejoicing in har
mony wilh our own, though on smaller
scale.
AT DANENPORT-
At Davenport, Saturday night, Hon. J.
H. Murphy was accorded a public recep
tion at tbe Kimball bouse and hundreds
of tbe citizens improved the occasion of
manifesting their appreciation of the
great work accomplished by Mr. Murphy
in the interesU of the great waterway.
AT MOLINE.
At a meeting of the Moline Business
Men's association this afternoon a resolu
tion was adopted setting forth the declin
ation of tbe association to take any part
in a Hennepin canal demonstration.
. THE COMMITTEE IN A ONION MEETING.
The committee appointed at the Bats
urday evening meeting to learn the sen
timent as to a union ratification meeting,
met In the parlors of the Rock Island
bank at 4 o'clock in the afternoon, Capt.
T. J. Robinson in the chair, and C. F.
Lynde, secretary. The following reso
lution was adopted:
Resolved. That a committee of three be
appointed by tbe chair to invite tbe busi
ness men of Davenport. Moline, Milan
and Geneseo to appoiut each a commit
tee to confer with these committees on
Monday afternoon next at the Harper
house at 4 o'clock, and arrange for a
formal celebration.
Under this resolution tbe following &p
pointm?nts were made:
For Moline E. II. Ouyer, Oliyer Oi
sen. Dr. W. A. Paul.
For Davenport B. T. Cable, Pbil
Mitchell, H. J. Lowrey.
For Milan W. B. Ferguson, Robert
Wagner. Henry Carse.
For Oeneseo Fred Haas, C.L. Walk
er, E. Mosenfelder.
The committee has another called
meeting at the Harper bouse at 4 o'clock
this afternoon. It depends entirely upon
the feeling of the other cities as to a
further demonstration. Rock Island did
herself proud Saturday night and did it
out of the abundance of her heart.
Thieve Make a Bit; liaul.
While the demonstration was in pro
gress down town Saturday night and Mr.
Geo. L. Aster and family like thousands
of others in the city were enjoying the
celebration, thieves broke into their borne,
corner of Seventeenth street and Sixth
avenue, and thoroughly raided the prem
ises, taking off with them eyerything
available and going further ana ransack
ing the matresses of a bed, where they
found and pocketed a handsome set of
diamonds. When the family returned
they found the following property had
been taken: Lady's gold watch, name
Bertha on outside, lady's gold necklace.
lady's gold locket set with pearls, name
Bertha, lady's chain bracelet two pair.
opera glasses, light pearl with name
Bertha, lady's fob chain with a f 10, f5,
$2 50 and $1 gold piere, ?ith sonograms

gold baby pins, pearl lead pencil marked
"B. E ," pair solid gold earrings with
diamond setting, gent's hair chain, gent's
gold locket marked "G. W. A.," brown
chinchilla overcoat, dark cutaway dress
coat. The police were at once notified.
but so far no trace has been found of the
burglars. Mr. Aster has offered a reward
of $50 for tbe recovery of tbe property.
IMrt l.ooal Work.
Aid. W. F. Scbroeder returned from
Chicago this morning whither he went
with Mayor McConochie and Mr. Fred
Hass to secure the promise of the Rock
Island and C, B. & Q. roads to assume
the amount of the viaduct damages.
President Cable, of the Rock Island road.
said he could not sign tbe bonds for the
road as such action would require a
meeting of the board of director.
He pledged, however, that the Rock Isl
and road would pay one third the dam
ages. This was all the committee desired .
General Manager Merrill, of the C. B.
& Q , received the committee favorably
and agreed to refer the matter to the
road's attorneys here, Sweeney & Walker.
Tbe committee also called on the Il
linois Steel company and laid before it
the matter of shipping Via material to
Rock Island Arsenal in the event of the
location of the gun foundry here. The
company agreed to send a representative
at the time of the gun factory board's
visit. It now costs a dollar a ton to ship
the raw material from Lake Superior to
Chicago and it will cost $1 more to bring
it on to Rock Island.
Mayor McConochie and Mr. Hass re
mained in Chicago over today.
Firm.
Tbe alarm of fire at 1 o'clock this
morning was occasioned by tbe discovery
of flames in tbe roof of tbe brick dwell
ing owned by Mrs. Johanna McMahon,
2306 Second avenue. The roof was a
mass of fire when discovered, but tbe
hose companies made fair time for volun
teers and bad tbe book and ladder truck
been on hand a half hour sooner, the
damage would have been much lighter
than it was. The roof was completely
destroyed and much destruction done by
water. The loss will be $300. The
house was occupied by Mrs. McMahon,
who with her daughter aie visiting in
Chicago, and her son, who last night was
away. So there was no one in the house,
and the origin of the fire is unknown.
The fire alarms in the Third and Fourth
wards successively Saturday evening were
caused by incipient blazes in tbe rear of
tbe Harper bouse and on the roof of Mrs.
Bailey's house, 727 Twentieth street.
Neither fire amounted to anything.
Thl
The jury in the arson case against Alf.
Evans, of Carbon Cliff, agreed to a ver
dict at 1 o'clock yesterday morning and

turned into court with the following ver
dict: We, the jury, find the acts committed
as charged, and we farther believe the
defendant has since become insane and is
now insane.
The judge gent the jury back to amend
the language of its verdict as to "believa"
the defendant insane, and the jury again
retired.

t, Their Marriage.
Today Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Woodward
celebrate their golden wedding, and chil
dren and grandchildren, brothers and sis
ters, nephews and nieces, to tbe number
of nearly forty, are gathered from var
ious parts of the country to join in the

J. Mayo,) was born in Wiltshire, Eog-
land, and also came to Ohio in 1839.
They were married at Liverpool, Ohio,
Sept. 22, 1840. In 1849 Mr. and Mrs.
Woodward came to Peoria to reside, re
moving from there to Rock Island in
1869, so that they may be classed among
the early settlers of Illinois. Six chil
dren have been born to them four of
whom are still living among them Mrs.
Adams, the wife of County Judge Lucian
Adams, of this city. Mr. Woodward is a
graduate of Trinity college, Dublin, a
fine classical scholar, and though totally
blind for several years past, and with
greatly defective hearing, he is as bright
and cheerful as a boy, with memory un
impaired, and voice as clear as a trumpet.
His good wife reads to him daily, which
he greatly enjoys, and with bis pipe and
bis thoughts he passes through the years
with tbe cheerfulness and serenity of an
"old soldier of the guard." Anyone'wbo
meets him will readily recognize- in him
the "fine old Irish gentleman one of the
rale old sort." The Mayos are an old Eng
lish family, dating back a good many
centuries. Fifty years of happy wedded
lifel May the autumn of their life con
tinue bright with its fruition of christian
content.
